5.0 out of 5 stars Great reference for a mechanical design engineer, January 11, 2007
This review is from: Plastics for Engineers: Materials, Properties, Applications (Hardcover)
Most engineering educations focus on examples and analysis involving metals. Plastics are ever increasing in there use in product designs. Often however, little mechanical data is available beyond the traditional tensile testing regiments.

Plastics are more sensitive to creep and fatigue failure mode than are metals. Along with traditional material properties tables, this book also presents data on creep and fatigue for many common plastics as well.

Other books on plastics are generally presented from the perspective of chemistry. This reference also has a nice focus on mechanical properties useful to the designer. It is the best reference in my library to date on the subject.
